Well, talked to the bank today about "selling the house for bitcoin", or to be more precise to take out a second mortgage, restructure my debts and "get some liquidity" as they put it. Good talk, and it's all settled. I'll be paying a llittle less each month, will have a substantial amount to invest in btc put in my account, and will also have a fixed interest rate for 20 years. Good times.

Of course they asked about what I wanted to the with "the liquidity", so i said I was looking to have some cash ready for when this whole cardhouse comes tumbling down, and invest in btc. That was a good enough explanation for them.

Nice bank. Crazy system. 1.7%.

My bank kicked me out simply for having bitcoins. They demanded information about whatever transactions I make. Obviously I told them to fuck off, and that was that.

Had I gone along with it, they would eventually have pushed for more. Access to monitor my wallets, maybe eventually direct access to them or demanding that they hold them in custody. Be careful.

There's a thread listing the banks that hate Bitcoin the most. Fortunately there's still a few in it that will do business with bitcoiners.

List of Bitcoin Hostile (and friendly) Banks

Unfortunately denmark is not on that list. No wonder, small country. Might be useful if I go shopping for a new country to live in... but it's a tiny list of countries. I'm looking at eastern europe or failing that, south america.
